"Poll question: AVENGERS or DARK KNIGHT RISES?"


  

          

Which will be the better film?

Both will go for the label "epic." Both will have quite a task in front of them with numerous characters to juggle. Both have British villains (The Dark Knight Rises has multiple British villains). One has Samuel L. Jackson... the other has Hines Ward.

YOU MAY ONLY CHOOSE ONE. Go on record-- which movie do you have more faith in to be the better summer blockbuster of the two?

(Since, cmon, we all know Battleship will be the best of the bunch.)

Honestly, Nolan's Batman isn't very fun.
Apr 10th 2012

I'm looking forward to AVENGERS more than DKR. To be honest....

Maybe i just irrationally hate dude's face
Apr 10th 2012

Better film and better blockbuster are two separate questions.

a ghost rider cameo would be awesome but I doubt it
Apr 10th 2012

      They should just call it Daredevil and...
Apr 10th 2012

      I don't think Ghost Rider could show even if they wanted

                Franks still chokin off those Iron Man 2 being>TDK backfire fumes
Apr 12th 2012
46
                     Huh? When did I say Iron Man TWO was better?
Apr 12th 2012
49
                          The popular sentiment was that it WAS going to be better
Apr 12th 2012
50
                               Well, sure, based on the first films alone.
Apr 12th 2012
51
                                    The unfortunate thing with IM is he doesn't have an iconic villain
Apr 12th 2012
52
                                         The unfortunate thing with IM is he didn't have a better director
Apr 12th 2012
53
                                              Iron Man 1 is much better than Batman Begins
Apr 12th 2012
54
                                              Agree to disagree.
Apr 12th 2012
56
                                              ITS NOT WHO I AM UNDERNEATH JIGGA
Apr 13th 2012
57
                                                   ... but it IS a crime drama.
Apr 13th 2012
58
                                                   I don't think anyone would shit on Batman Begins...
Apr 13th 2012

                                                   The Scarecrow tazing is indefensible. It pissed me off more than you.
Apr 13th 2012

                                                        THANK YOU
Apr 24th 2012
105
                                                        Why does an origin story need the greatest villain ever though?
Apr 24th 2012
110
                                                             that was my problem with Iron Man 2
Apr 24th 2012
118
                                                             It doesn't. But the villains in Batman Begins were still better than IM
Apr 24th 2012
119
                                                                  Yeah.
Apr 24th 2012
120
                                                                       Interesting you bring up Bond
Apr 25th 2012
128
                                                                            You can pinpoint the moment X-Men 1 falls apart.

Batman is always good ... as long as there's no Chris O'Donnell
Apr 13th 2012

Maybe Nolan will finally figure out how to do a 3rd act

Apr 15th 2012
69
Nolan got rid of nearly everything about Batman that's compelling
Apr 15th 2012
70
      Is that not what the Dark Knight graphic novels did?
Apr 15th 2012
71
      not exactly

Apr 15th 2012
76
           I'm not talking about Batman himself
Apr 15th 2012

                Again, where would those have come up in Nolan's movies?

Apr 18th 2012

                               The only way I'd see it being important...
Apr 18th 2012
90
                               Totally agree
Apr 18th 2012
91
                                    Superman Returns tried to get it going a bit IMO
Apr 20th 2012
101
                               I'll tell you why
Apr 20th 2012
102
what about spidey?
Apr 15th 2012
72
It's amazing what an afterthought that movie's become
Apr 15th 2012
77
      It's like every new clip and trailer is more forgettable than the last.
Apr 17th 2012
84
           It was too soon for a reboot
Apr 18th 2012
85
                all correct
Apr 18th 2012
92
avengers because they cheated
Apr 15th 2012

I'm much more excited about the Avengers
Apr 15th 2012

The Dark Knight is better than the current Marvel Cinematic Universe...
Apr 16th 2012

I can't believe the Nolan hate I'm seeing
Apr 20th 2012
93
Disgusting, ain't it?
Apr 20th 2012
94
It's interesting because Nolan and Whedon are the exact opposites
Apr 20th 2012
95
It's not hate. At least from me.
Apr 20th 2012
96
No Nolan hate at all, DK is THE best comic book movie, but...
Apr 20th 2012
98
lmao, what hate? Who said his Batmans aren't good?
Apr 20th 2012

Apr 20th 2012

      I just think you expect something different from a Batman film than I do...
Apr 24th 2012
115
           okay I'ma say this shit one more time
Apr 25th 2012
122
                might need to watch these flicks one more time if you're sayin this
Apr 25th 2012
124
                     that shit wasn't detective work
Apr 25th 2012

                          It's Batman bro not Barnaby Jones
Apr 25th 2012

                               Batman aka THE WORLDS GREATEST DETECTIVE

Apr 29th 2012
